This is the complete list of names referred to in Haggbloom, et al. (2002).
There is a correction involving the citation frequency for Hans Eysenck. The
corrected citation frequency is 130; the corrected rank is 16th, i.e., following
Gordon Bower and before Lawrence Kohlberg. Note that the original rank of 54.5
assigned to Eysenck in this table differed from the rank of 30 reported in the
article, and both values were wrong. Recalculation of the composite score (mean
z-score across all four variables) for Eysenck based on the corrected citation
frequency did not alter his position in the most eminent
list.
